GrRur-a Horae

General Grant was particularly proud
OF his stud of horses His war charger
was an especial favorite. He took great
delight IN exhibiting his horses to his
friends with whom he was intimate
Once at his stables with a friend he said.

be brought out. The gentleman was sur
prized TO find the horse no larger than a
lady's palfrey - small, slender, agile

an eye like hawk, and a lick on the
name for all the world like boys COW
lick. 1t was such an animal as women
and children would make into family
pet.
The gentleman pronounced the animal
beauty, but ex pressed a doubt as to its
endurance. Endurance 2" said the
general this animal exceeds in endur-

taken him out at daylight and kept in the
saddle till dark, and he came in as fresh
when dismounted as when l started in
the morning. There isn't enough gold in
America TO buy him. He is an imported
horse of fine breed, and was once on JEFF
Davis plantation" This was Just before
Davis was caught, and the visitor said.
II presume you would exchange the
horse for JEFF Davis ?" You have said
il, exclaimed Grant 81 would exchange
him for his master, but for nothing else

For some years many of the prominent
Southern cities have been trying to bring
cents into circulation, and desperate in
deed have been the efforts TO atr,omplish
this. Several houses have declared in
favor OF cents, to find their introduction
far more difficult than was imagined.
One publisher imported barrels OF the
coins and put them forth, only to find
out that they returned in 4 very short
time. The idea of CARRYING the measure.
through by one grand movement, all act
ing together, failed. The people wrr.
not acquainted with cents and refused

Cured OF Being Angry.

Judge Murray, of Napiervtlle. looks
back on more then seventy years. though
he seeIns TO be less than sixty.
The other day on one of the suburban
trains he sat In a game of whist when
his partner said something that did not

Without a word OF explanation the old
Judge left the board, took a seat else
where. and began reading his newspaper
as IL nothing had happened. Soon after.

tDnderstandinE OF Animals.

Bayard Taylor relates the following -
Animals have much more capacity TO
understand human speech than is general

Money Saved by a Fly.

Here Is q story from the Companion,
showing how a blue-bottle fly was the
means of saving much work and expense
Files are most useful scavengers, for
they destroy much matter which is in
jurious To man. They lay their eggs in
dccaying animal substances, and these
hatch out in a very short time The
young flies begin TO eat as soon as they
are Matched, and soon eat up the decayed
matter. 1t i said that the progeny of
two blue-bottle flies will eat up a dead
horse more quickly than one lion could
perform the task.
Flies have a wonderful scent II a
piece OF decayed meat is placed in an
open place where there are no flies, il will
not be long before a troop of flies will be
crawling over il. An ingenious man
once made a fly serve him. A poisoned
rat had crawled under the floor OF a
gcntleman's dining-roOm, and died there.
The room, which had been fitted up at
great expense, became uninhabitable,
and workmen were called in to remove
the flooring. Rut one of them suggested
that ii a blue-bottle fly should be turned
into the room, il would lind the exact
spot where the dead rat was lying. The
fly, being caught and turned in, buzzed
about the room for some time. At last
It alIghted upon a certain spot on the
floor, and remained there.
There's where your dead rat is :" the
the workman said. \ single board was
removed, and the rat was exposed to
view. The ly had scented the body
through the crack IN the floor.
